Not So Little Little Brother

Hello! Today I have a layout using the Scrapbook Circle May embellishment add-on, This is Magic.

My kids have a tradition of sitting on the kitchen counter at my mom's house and having their pictures taken. This year at Easter when I was trying to get a good shot, they started wrestling around with one another (shocking, I know). It was during this time it became very apparent to my oldest that her little brother is now much stronger than she. I love everything about these pictures and had to get them documented.

To begin, I used Pink Paislee patterned papers as the base for the layout. Next, I backed each of the four photos with yellow patterned paper from Crate Paper.

I used my Silhouette to cut the title using white card stock and more yellow patterned paper from Crate Paper. With the title cut, I used the Pinkfresh Studio acetate alphas to spell "big" and glued them on top of the "little." I wanted it to be subtle so the alphas are perfect.

Next, I added a few of the Pinkfresh Studio and Bella Blvd. embellishments along with a wood arrow from Jillibean Soup to the layout.

Last, I added a bit of journaling and drew a thin black border around the edges.
